The Deputy Prime Minister has shaken off accusations from the opposition over the Government's decision to take its time in recognising a Palestinian state.

The Government plans to make an official decision in the coming weeks.

David Seymour says the Government will take the time needed to decide its stance. 

"The Government is taking its time - some say this conflict goes back 4000 years. I don't think it's a major problem for the Government of New Zealand on the other side of the world to take a few weeks to come to a sober and sensible decision."
